My son bought a vehicle, he had to finance through the auto dealership and I co-signed. So, he applied, and the dealership called and said the financing was all in place. The purchase price of the vehicle was $12,995. When I went with him to sign for the purchase, the salesman added $999 “anti theft protection”. I said what’s this? He said that insurance company’s will use this and reduce your premiums. He said “it’s required “. There was also an add on of $1,599 of Tire and rim protection. He said the finance company required it as a condition of the loan.

Lawyer's Assistant: I'll need a bit more before we can address your question. What province are you in? And is a local attorney or other consumer protection advocate helping with this?

So, we signed, and on the Monday, as this was done on a Saturday, I called both my insurance and the financing, they both said he lied. My son was a witness. I went to AMVIC, and they sided with the auto company.

Lawyer's Assistant: Have you contacted the seller or manufacturer?

Alberta, and no. I did go through AMVIC, but they sided with the dealership.

Lawyer's Assistant: Anything else you want the lawyer to know before I connect you?

Yes. They are slimy. In the deal, the salesman also promised a Go-Auto card of $750 but he sent a card without any balance on it, and now refuses to talk to me. Again, my son witnessed this conversation. Thing is, in the deal, there were 4 things he had to take care of, and he dropped it off to our house, and nothing was fixed, until I complained.
